Big increase in sightings in the last 48 hours

HerdTracker update 01 Jul 2014 by Lemala Camps and Lodges

The pockets of beasties are gathering along the north bank of the Mara. There has been a big increase in sightings in the last 48 hours. Some guests have witnessed mini crossings of 50 to a couple hundred but always dramatic thanks to the presence of the ever lurking crocs. There have been a few reports of crocs taking wildebeest. A drive along the another section of the river is showing increased presence of crocodiles, maybe they know something. The big herd is still to the south of us but those that snuck across a few weeks ago are coming back and there are a few thousand wildebeest all close to the river at various points waiting to cross. Just got to be at the right place at the right time.
